CNC turning is a machining operation typically used to create components with circular cross-sections by removing material from them. In order to cut effectively on a lathe, the cutting tool must be in line with its movement axis, which is not the case when it comes to face milling. A special kind of lathe called cnc lathe is required
The main advantage of CNC turning is that you can use standard turning tools (or even high-precision accessories such as milling cutters) in combination with any material and process. This makes it possible to produce highly complex parts with minimal setup costs.
